Examples

get_sidra

Let’s assume that we want the IPCA (Índice de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo) for the city of Campo Grande/MS. However, we will only recover the overall percentage rate in the last 12 months. To do this simply execute:

For most users the data request is done via the online portal (https://sidra.ibge.gov.br). In this case, if you want to save the parameters of the table selected in the portal to a posterior request of the same table via sidrar, you should copy the path in the red rectangle and pass to the api argument in get_sidra:

info_sidra

In the previous examples we know how to recover data from tables according to the parameters reported. However, if I do not know what the parameters are, how should I proceed? To verify the parameters (variables, classifications, periods, etc.) of a given table, simply use the function “info_sidra”, informing the code of the table. The function returns a list with the possible parameters in the console. However, if wb = TRUE, the user can allow the result to be displayed in an web browser.

search_sidra

If the user wants to know if there is a table that contains a certain term / word, simply use the function ** search_sidra ** informing the words of interest. The function returns the tables containing these terms in their headings.
